Abstract |
For the prediction of the shear strength of reinforced concrete members subjected to axial force, this paper presents a truss model, Transformation Angle Truss Model (TATM), that can predict the shear behavior of reinforced concrete members subjected to combined actions of shear, axial force, and bending moment. In TATM, as axial compressive stress increases, crack angle decreases and concrete contribution due to the shear resistance of concrete along the crack direction increases in order to consider the effect of the axial force. To verify if the prediction results of TATM have an accuracy and reliability for the shear strength of reinforced concrete members subjected to axial forces, the shear test results of a total of 67 RC members subjected to axial force reported in the technical literatures were collected and compared with TATM and existing analytical models(MCFT RA-STM and FA-STM). As a result of comparing with experimental and theoretical results, the test results was better predicted by TATM with 0.94 in average value of τtest/τana. and 11.2% in coefficient of variation than other truss models. And theoretical results obtained from TATM were not effect by steel capacity ratio, axial force, shear span-to-depth ratio, and compressive steel ratio.
